OUT FOR TRACK
Freshmen Have Very Strong Aggregation
Out of the many most promising candidates for the track team, twenty-four are Freshmen, a percentage of 80.
The representation on the team, of upper classmen, though small in quantity, is excellent in quality. George Gansner, captain of the team, is the high-water mark in the high and low hurdles. Marion Raab, to meet the conservative expectations of Coach Cromwell, can do no less than twelve feet in the pole vault this year. Gwinn Wilson is the man looked forward to in the half-mile. J. Raymond King will roll up many points in the hurdles before the season is over. Olerich allows promise in the discus and javelin. The big bet for the shot and discus Is Irl C. Wilson, former all-around star athlete of Redlands University. H. Harrison is out sprinting the mile. This completes the roster of the upper classmen.
Of the Freshmen there are for the—
Sprints: The two aces of the 100, 220 and 440 are the big Berthas of the entire team, ex-Lieutenant Charley Paddock and George Schiller. Paddy goes so fast in the 100 and 220 that the timing watch can't keep up with him. Every time George Schiller tears off his quarter the next event has to be postponed for ten minutes to let the track cool off sufficiently. Prominent aides-de-camp in the sprints are Don Ayres, Louis Whitcomb ana L. (J. Griffiths. Other sprinters are turning up at every session.
The half-mile and mile: Louis George, Morgan Cox, Charles Graham and Ellis Wiilits.
Hurdlers: Scintillating hurdlers are Fred Bushmeyer, Ed Farr, Ellis Wil-lits and Melvin Stuart. Schiller is a good pinch hurdler.
Pole Vaulters: Knights of the bamboo stick are Joe Chapman, Lieutenant Walter, McMillan (another cloud-bumper), Melvin Anderson and John Leadingham.
High Jump: High jumpers this year are Fred Bushmeyer (pace-setter), George Polkinghorn and Louis Whitcomb. Candidates for this course report to Coach Cromwell without delay, because material as well as time is short.
Shot-put: The Walter Johnson of the lead marble is Charles Toney. Kh’ht behind, but coming fast, are Vernon Augustine, Mel Stuart and Max Brown.
I'iscus: Augustine, Frank Lockett, Toney, and “Red" Cox ("yoo, hoo, Skinnay!”).
1 road Jump: Versatile Schiller appears also on the list of grasshoppers. 0tl er members of the tribe are Hush-nx .er, Whitcomb, Wiilits, McMillan and George Ed Serviss.
J ivelln: This will be aptly directed by the two able exponents of ancient »’n fare, Kightmire and Augustine.
I elay: The backbone of this event 1*. if course, Paddy and Schiller. Oth-

Solved! ^Mystery of 43 Frosh
Friday, beginning before eight o’clock when the Trojan -was laid on the table in the hall, the University was in an uproar. Excited groups of students, especially fraternity men could be seen talking, gesticulating and pointing to an innocent looking article in the paper.
“What does this moan? When were 43 students expelled from this college?” everybody was asking. Some unsophisticated freshman suggested that everyone go to the Sigma Chi House to view the blue and gold banner, which the Trojan reported as hanging at half-mast. Poor Sigma Chi! All extended deepest sympathy to the Frat in its great sorrow.
Professor Schulz, who is a Phi Delta Theta, dashed up to the Trojan editor, tearing his hair and bemoaning the fact that the Phi Delta Theta chapter had been installed in the University and exnelled, and he, a member, knew nothing about it. Alas!
And what was the cause of all this sorrow, lamentation and excitement on the campus? Only that the printer tried to get too much news in one column aud left out the heading that showed the article to be from Stanford.
ers are yet to be selected. Bushmeyer seems to be well up on the list.
Anyone else desiring to do his duty will report at once to Coach Cromwell. U. S. C. goes to Berkeley this year.
Skull and Dagger Men Make Plans for Initiation of their Pledges
To the many new students of the University who have become acquainted with Alma Mater only under war conditions, and who naturally feel that its student organization and student spirit has had some difficulty in reaching the desired standard, it might be refreshing and encouraging to know that a small group of the representatives of the old days gathered together at Petiflil’s for a luncheon and informal business meeting last week.
These men, all wearing the Skull and Dagger insignia, were back to revive the spirit of the organization which has as its ideal the furtherment of the plans, program and welfare of all the colleges of the University through recognition in an honorary way of those individuals in the student body who show special ability in University affairs.
Back in the days when our college halls knew Fred W. Kelly as the hero just returning from the Stockholm games, when Everett Warren Mattoon was engaged in a politician’s dream and edited El Rodeo during the same semester, before Captain Cloyd Heck Marvin had begun to hope of gaining j distinction at Harvard University,
■ when Fred Watkins was still buried in j the financial adjustments of that last I track meet, and had not seen himself as he is today, a successful attorney; when Herman Albers, Howard Blair Henshey, Linton Smith, and Hallam Anderson were names known to all the student body, even before “Dry" Haydock had a complete vision of a dry America, though he had won the national oratorical contest, and in the days when being a major in Uncle Sam’s army had not as yet thrilled “Bovie’s” heart, all these gathered together and founded the Skull and Dagger Honorary Society. Achievement in student affairs has since that date been rewarded by membership in this organization, and in such associations have been found invaluable aids towards the development of a greater loyalty to the University and a deeper desire to aid in the solution of its problems.
As the years have come and gone since that date, student body presidents, captains of football, track, base ball, and basket ball, renowned athletes, winners of national oratorical contests, debating managers, editors and managers of the Trojan and of El Rodeo, have helped to crystallize the ideal of achievement in University affairs. With the full approval, sanction and encouragement of tbe administration, it has prospered as a strictly “all University” organization Through the co-operation of its members now on the instruction and administrative staff it has a real opportunity to serve fhe University as a whole
The resident membership now includes Dr. G. F. Bovard, President of the University; Dr. G. E. Bailey of the Department of Geology, Dean Frank
In the basketball game at the Los Angeles Athletic Club last Saturday night, March 15, the team showed its old defensive spirit, but, unfortunately, went down for a 69-15 score in favor of the Club. The Trojans played a defensive game throughout, but the aggressive consistent playing of the Athletic Club team was a little too much for them.
This game completed the second in the series with the A. A. U. The first game scored a victory of 59-16 for the U. S. C. boys at Fullerton Wednesday night last. There are about twelve more games to be played before the season closes.
The Athletic Club team comprises a number of veterans at the basket-tossing sport. "Red” Wilson, the former all-southern forward, who has been with the Club for the past two years, is a pastmaster at basket-shooting. Swan, Cooper and Kate are a trio of f he famous Orange Athletic Club boys and were on the championship team of that club last year. Olney was formerly with the Y. M. C. A. The line-up of the contest was as follows:
U. S. C. L. A. A. C.
Bell Fwd Wilson
Butterfield Fwd Swan
MacCormack C Olney
Kuhns Cd Cooper
Axe Gd Kate
With energy and fight storing up from this attack, it is predicted that the U. S. C. boys will come back for a number of victories before the close of the A. A. U. series. Grant Kuhns, Trojan star, when asked what he thought of the game, replied: "They have a swell team. 1 think they could whip California.”
M. Porter of the College of Law, Dr. Roy Malcom, head of the Department of Political Science; Dr. R. D. Hunt, head of the Department of Economics; Dr. E. S.
